I see. What is that state like? And good luck to the both of you with it.

How do you distinguish between primary/high school and uni then? Curious that school applies to all three, when the first two is for one's necessary education, and the other pay for a degree, or get paid for research/doing a higher degree like in my case.

I wish it is as easy as that; have had a few interviews but no luck so far. I'll just have to keep trying though.

We call it uni here, not school. =p Plus I have been paid for it (although money runs out soon... so I am keen to finish!). Plans after is to either get a job in academia (research) or if not then try for some computational work in e.g. data science. Easier said than done though.

I've been working on...everything. Still writing, still reading, still have my other interests like video games. (I've gotten into some podcasts as well, and am working through those backlogs.) Mainly, I've been doing things that my anxiety used to hold me back from. I finally made the phone call to set up an appointment to get my driver's license! I used to get so anxious when the thought came up of making that phone call, but this year, I decided to just go for it.

That really is a good choice for the both of you! Geoff would keep me updated on how things were going for you, so I know how close the two of you are. You'll be much happier, especially since you two can rely on one another. So happy for the two of you!

Biography

Hello and welcome to my profile!

I modded FF&W from November 8th, 2013, to March 12th, 2015, and really enjoyed it. I was promoted to super moderator on the latter date, and resigned on May 19th, 2016. My time on staff was amazing, but it was time to go.

Interests

I also like roller coasters and I play the trumpet, french horn, mellophone (a french horn for marching band), and flugel.

Now that I'm officially in my post-good movie high, let's get started.

In case you don't know what Zootopia is about, and you can't watch the trailer, let me give a brief preview. All of the characters in this movie are anthropomorphic animals, meaning they can walk, talk, and do everything a human can do. So yeah, basically every disney movie, but that's besides the point. Zootopia is this big city where all of the animals can live together in peace and...

Man, it's been a while since I've done a movie review, far too long. So, when my roommates invited me to go see The Boy with them, of course I tagged along.

The Boy is directed by William Brent Bell and stars Lauren Cohan in the main role. In case you haven't seen the trailer, a nanny, Greta, is called to this old english house so that she can watch over the old couple's son while they take a vacation. The main plot conflict comes into play, and I don't...

M. Night Shyamalan brings us yet another horror flick, but this one is a little different.

I must admit, when I saw the trailer for this film I wasn't expecting much. Here comes yet another found footage horror film to throw into the pile, lost and forgotten with all of the other cheaply made films studios pump out for a quick buck. At least, that's what I thought until I did some more digging. M. Night Shyamalan actually made this movie with his own money....

This movie is gory, doesn't make sense, over the top, and mindless action. So why did I enjoy it?

I must say, I was really surprised by American Ultra. I went in expecting mindless action with really cheap comedy, and that's actually exactly what I got. But don't worry, there's a lot more to it. The very things I went in to see took a backseat to a story with a surprising amount of heart and characters that weren't drones for endless jokes. Don't get me...

If you thought the first Sinister was messed up, hold on to your sanity, because you haven't seen anything yet.

WARNING: GRAPHIC SCENES AND VIOLENCE:

For the record, I thought the first movie was decent. It at least tried to break from the traditional hollywood jumpscare routine by giving us interesting-ish characters and a plot that wasn't bad. This movie is pretty much the same, only it cranks up the demonic factor to twelve, and doesn't hold anything...
